Abstract - The construction industry is having the highest rate of growth in the last 10-15 years, which causes a major negative impact on the natural resources available for construction and the environment in its consumption of energy. To resolve these problems, one needs to go for "Green Buildings". Today, there is a high level of demand for green or sustainable buildings. The most important decisions regarding a green building's features are made during the preconstruction and design stages. With the increase in demand for green buildings, the demand for Green Building Rating System (GBRS) is also increasing. Green Building Rating System (GBRS) set the benchmark for green building measurement, which helps to reduce the negative impact on the environment by promoting quality green buildings. Hence, it is considered as an attempt to check the status of green buildings growth in India. This paper includes the Objective, Methodology, Study process adopted for criteria of the Green Building Rating System (GBRS) to improve the performance of residential buildings in the Sangli and Kolhapur region and the expected conclusion. This research helps the builders to consider the criteria of the Green Building Rating System (GBRS) for residential buildings during the planning phase of the project. This will lead to the development of a sustainable world. Key Words: Green Building, Green Building Rating System (GBRS), criteria 1. INTRODUCTION: Due to increased population and rapid urbanization, there is a huge demand for commercial and residential buildings. Traditional methods of construction and materials are harmful to our society and environment because they emit greenhouse gases (GHGs), dust, consume more water and energy. Natural resources like forests, ground cover, energy, and water are reducing to give way to buildings. Many occupant functions and building processes create a huge amount of waste. Therefore, buildings are major pollutants that affect urban air quality and contribute to climate change. To resolve these issues, it is necessary to go for sustainable construction or green building. A Green building utilizes less energy, less water, creates less waste, © 2021, IRJET

and gives more advantageous spaces to tenants as compared to a regular building. The Green Building focuses mainly on two objectives:

To reduce building’s negative impact on the environment and human health, by site selection, better design, construction, operation & maintenance.

To increase the efficiency of buildings by using energy, materials, and water.

As the demand for green buildings is increasing, the demand for Green Building Rating Systems and assessment tools is also increasing. For evaluating the environmental performance of buildings all over their life cycle, a Green Building Rating System is a rating tool. This rating tool helps to reduce the negative impact on the environment by promoting quality green buildings. It consists of a set of criteria that includes different parameters related to design, construction, and operation of green building performances, benchmarks, and largely quantifiable goals which are mentioned in each criterion. Each criterion has pre-assigned sets and points. If the project fulfills the rating criteria, then it is awarded by points and the final rating of a project is decided by adding points from start to end. For fair calculation of project rating systems call for independent third party and different processes are put in place. Some of the successful international Green Building Rating System programs which are used in India are: GRIHA- Green Rating For Integrated Habitat Assessment  LEED- Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design.  IGBC-Indian Green Building Council To decrease the impact on our planet and improve the living standards of all, one solution is to go for green buildings in the country. The solutions that we make now ISO 9001:2008 Certified Journal
